The sunrise cruising into Huatulco was breathtaking.
The boat to the right is home ported in Bainbridge Island WA
On our tour we were taken to a tortilla making household and natural gardens. Unbelievable how rustic the kitchen was, they grew the corn, dried it and took it off the Cobb. Then the corn was soaked, squished and rolled into the tortilla shapes, then baked in a wood burning oven.

The gardens were beautiful and in full spring bloom!     Oh my it was really really hot and humid!!! 
After we left the gardens we went into old town and went to a families house that the men made iron yard tools in their Blacksmith shop. It was very interesting and as hot as it was, they were NOT sweating!!!!
  
After we left the iron shop we went to where they make Mescal (Tequila), passing an old cemetery on the way.
There were many different flavors of Tequila to taste, but only one bowl of fried grasshoppers! I tasted the grasshoppers for the first and last time!!!! They tasted like they look!!
As glad as we were to go, we were really happy to get back to the air conditioned ship.
